Ok so basically I opened my mod yesterday and (it was working fine the previous day) and my game crashes.

https://pastebin.com/raw/GEbhDj46 <--Crash file

 

From this I can see that 

"net.minecraft.util.ResourceLocationException: Non [a-z0-9_.-] character in namespace of location: .DS_Store:sounds.json" is the problem.

I've searched around my mods folder and even Reinstalled the mdk and imported my src folder over and it still crashes. So from this I know it is my mod and not forge.

 

[22:01:10.925] [Client thread/DEBUG] [ne.mi.fm.pa.ResourcePackLoader/CORE]: Generating PackInfo named mod:yrim for mod file /Users/nathandesouza/Desktop/mood/RandomItems 1.13.219/forge-1.13.2-25.0.219-mdk/bin/main

^ This is my console just before the crash report starts.

Any help is appreciated i've been trying for over 4 hours now.

 

UPDATE:

 

OK something weird is going on. My mod doesnt crash if I remove the 'assets' folder (src/main/resources/assets/). So i took everything out of my assets folder to try and narrow the cause down AND IT CRASHES. An empty assets folder crashes my game? My game runs fine if I DELETE the assets folder. But as soon as i put it back in it crashes again with the same error? The assets folder is EMPTY, I REPEAT THE ASSETS FOLDER IS EMPTY!!

 

Any suggestions are welcome!

Thanks! :D

i would try to remove the en_us.json

Like i said before, I have removed everything in my assets folder (including the language file).

sorry didn't read it quite fully
 

did you try to create the assets folder new and not just undo the deleted folder ... i could imagine that you have a hidden file in your previous assets folder

Indeed I have deleted and created a new folder. And still nothing.

 

Edit:

Might add that i have hidden folders turned on

Edited May 30, 20196 yr by Ywes

wierd   may be your modid something wierd that isn't being accepted?

because it should be generated a folder with your modid in the assets folder when you start your mod ..

Yeah the weirdest thing is my mod works fine without the assets folder. But obviously then i cant add textures ect. 

and your build path is also not messed up somehow?

Not that im aware. Like i said I did a fresh install of the lastest mdk.

 

Also would you know where the sound.json file would be kept in the mdk folder?

actually i dunno  anyways i have to go good luck 

Thankyou for trying to help!

But why is it doing it now? It has never happened before and ive been modding since 1.7.10 on this macOSX. Have you ever encountered a problem like this? I know you're like an expert at modding.

.DS_Store files are files that store the hierarchy of a directory as well as the information of the files in it; this provides constant time complexity when searching the hard disk for certain file via spotlight.

However, they can be very annoying to deal with sometimes.

To remove it, simply cd into the directory and rm -rf .DS_Store.

 

The log you posted only shows the warning, which should not cause a crash.

Please post the crash log so we could figure out what really is crashing.

Ok so i tried this and too be completely honest i dont know if it worked. See the thing is apple hides .DS_STORE files in the newest update, even if you have hidden files on.

Thank you!

Running ls -ld .* would show all hidden files in the current directory. You could use that to test for .DS_Store.

Edited May 31, 20196 yr by DavidM

Ok i deleted the .DS_STORE files but to no avail. But i discovered something very interesting. 

So basically I redid my entire assets folder except this time i made them in eclipse instead of creating folders and it worked (without any files).

But as soon as i moved my files (the .lang and json ect) it crashed again with the same error. 

So i redid the whole assets package again and i made the .jsons and .lang files inside eclipse itself and it worked, no more crashing. UNTIL i refreshed my wrokspace and now its crashing again.

Do you have any idea whats going on?

Yes. .DS_Store updates every time a file/sub directory name changes, a file/sub directory is added/deleted, or a file is edited.

When you create a folder or file in eclipse, it seems that the action will not trigger a .DS_Store update.

Creating a folder via Finder will cause an update.

 

There is probably a way to disable the generation of DSstore via a command, but I don’t know it. Try google it up.

Jesus lord. It's as if they make their OS more unusable with every update.

Apple do patronize its user. To illustrate, you cannot create a new text file in Mac OS via right click because Apple thinks “adding the option to create an empty text file might confuse the user; they should use tools they are working with, like Pages or Keynote, to create new files”.

I also have a problem with this, even though this may be a little back I wish I could get some assistance.

Go ask google on how to disable those hideous stupid files.

I did disable them from being created, yet I don't know how to remove it entirely.

[P.S] Does it have to do with anything alongside my code or just that one thing?

I have this same problem even when using 1.14.4. Has anyone found a solution?

Hello!

The solution in the linked form worked for me. 

Best of luck!

I run this command before running the ./gradle build or if I have made name changes outside of the Eclipse environment.

 

find . -name '.DS_Store' -type f -delete

 

It clears out any pesky .DS_Store files out of my eclipse folder

This is also the solution I found.

Please note this only occurs for Eclipse, IntelliJ has no such problem.

Edited January 10, 20205 yr by Cadiboo

Here is my answer. I am also a mac user with the same issue. The problem is that OSX puts .DS_STORE in the run files, crashing the game.

1. Duplicate the mod folder. This will make code editors think you are on a different project.

2. Delete the "runs" folder. This will make IntelliJ (or any code editor, like eclipse) forget about the DS_STORE files.

Yes, Duplicate the MDK folder and delete the runs from the duplicate. The .DS_STORE file will be gone. Run the duplicate.
